‘I was bitter for years’ - Golden Tate on infamous rumors of affair with Russell Wilson’s ex-wife

Related Topics: Golden Tate, Russell Wilson

Former Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Golden Tate appeared as a guest on ex-Seahawks teammate KJ Wright’s KJ All Day podcast. One of the topics discussed was, you guessed it, those Russell Wilson rumors from yesteryear.

Back in 2013, the Seahawks were on their way to winning the Super Bowl, but it was also the last year of Tate’s contract before entering free agency. Shortly after the Seahawks hoisted the Lombardi Trophy, Tate left Seattle for the Detroit Lions and Wilson divorced his first wife, Ashton Meem. Rumors spread online that Tate had an affair with Ashton while she was still married to Wilson, and Golden shot those rumors down back in 2015.
